Levittown Wawa celebrating grand opening

Festivities are set for April 21, beginning at 8 a.m.

Wawa announced the grand opening of its newest store, located at 225 A Levittown Pkwy, Levittown, on Thursday, April 21. To mark the occasion, Wawa is hosting a grand opening celebration and outdoor ribbon cutting beginning at 9 a.m. Prior to the celebration, the new store will open at 8 a.m., when Wawa will be distributing limited edition Wawa “Goose Vibes Only” T-shirts for the first 100 customers who walk through the door, while supplies last.

Each Wawa grand opening this year is part of Wawa’s 2022 Day Brighteners Tour, an initiative designed to celebrate customers, associates, local heroes and community organizations. The tour also marks Wawa’s commitment to ongoing growth, with plans to open 54 new stores and create more than 2,500 new jobs this year.

During the grand opening, Wawa will have a special Day Brightener ceremony, which will include:

Associate Day Brighteners: Wawa will recognize associates who go above and beyond in creating positive moments for customers
Community Day Brighteners: Wawa will celebrate a local individual or organization making a bright impact in the community
Local Hero Day Brighteners: Wawa will acknowledge local everyday heroes who brighten the community through protecting and serving and host a signature Hoagies for Heroes. Local first responders from Tullytown Police Department and Tullytown Fire Company will compete to see who can build the most hoagies in three minutes. Wawa will present checks for $1,000 to each department’s charity of choice.

“At Wawa, our core purpose is fulfilling lives every day and since our first store opened, we’ve believed that we all have a role in making this world a better place,” said Chris Gheysens, Wawa’s president and CEO. “Our store teams and associates deliver experiences and emotional connections with customers that go beyond what traditionally happens in a retail environment. Simply put, they help make their communities happier and more connected. This year, we’re excited to toast all the incredible Day Brighteners and kick off this one-of-a-kind tour with a stop at each new store to show our ‘Goose Gratitude’ to associates and customers whose little acts of kindness make a big difference in our communities.”

Nominations for Day Brighteners can be submitted here.

Robert Kelly will serve as general manager of the Levittown store, leading a team of approximately 40 associates, all of which are new positions brought to the area through the development of the store.
